I assume it is a diesel engine. Here is an article that will give you the % of different liquids to combine to have a replacement for diesel. And yes it mixes kerosene and cooking oil.

Would it do harm to any part of the engine on my peugeot 407 hdi if i put 4,gallons of kerosine mixed with 4 gallons of diesel ?

The entire fuel system will need to be drained and purged (At the fuel pressure test port, Usually a scoville valve). The possibility of sticking of the piston rings could occur. Try removing the spark plugs and spray a liberal amount of PB Blaster into the cylinders and let soak for about 30 min. Then spin the engine to evacuate cylinders ,to prevent hydro-locking, reinstall the spark plugs. ASUMING the 407 is a gasoline engine, it should run. If the 407 is a diesel engine the mix should not have any adverse effect. Just keep adding fresh diesel fuel until rough run clears up.

Peugeot 407 2.0 hdi lots of black smoke when you put your foot down past 2000 rpm

The reason for the black smoke is that it is not getting enough air to burn the fuel completely.It could be a blocked air filter,obstruction in the air intake system,blown turbo,hole in tube between intake manifold and turbo,or a fault with the fuel system and injectors.
